Pentax booth at Photokina : The Pentax booth also got quite a lot of attention, most of it for one product; the new Pentax K10D digital SLR camera. The Pentax K10D, featuring ten Megapixel CCD, anti-dust and image stabilization, is a very interesting digital SLR camera that will need to compete against other ten Megapixel DSLR cameras from brands like Canon, Nikon, Sony, Samsung and Olympus for a share of the market. A lot of consumers were eager to touch and try the new K10D themselves and we heard a lot of positive reactions about the operation and build of the camera.

Pentax digital SLR products at Photokina : Pentax Corporation is pleased to announce the exhibition of three interchangeable digital SLR camera lenses and a medium-format digital SLR camera, all currently under development, at Photokina 2006. This is one of the world’s largest photo and imaging merchandise fairs, and will be held this year from September 26 to October 1 in Cologne, Germany. The digital SLR camera market is reaching out to an even larger audience than before by breaking the price barrier of high resolution DSLR cameras. Model names, designs, specifications and market launch schedules of these products are all tentative and subject to change without notice. Marketing prices of these products will be announced later.
